Kennington Park: Beautiful Park In South London

Kennington Park hasn’t always had the beautiful, peaceful and affluent associations that it enjoys today. While it was a common, within sight of the smoky factories and wharfs that typified the industrial revolution, the working-class movement the Chartists staged a mass protest here and were faced down by an enormous opposing government force made up of conscripted policemen. The powers that be were afraid enough of the movement to get infantrymen to protect their houses, and orders were issued to 170,000 otherwise civilians. After Kennington Common became Kennington Park, it was also a place of public execution! Today, however, it is a beautiful park with a number of attractions, and is hugely popular with Londoners.
